The Honoured Servant (Isaiah 52:13–15)
Isaiah reveals the surprising path of God’s servant: humiliation followed by exaltation. Though disfigured and rejected, the servant ultimately astonishes nations and silences kings. This topic explores how God brings honour through suffering and reveals his saving purposes to the world.
